    I have literally followed Sarah’s channel since she lived at home with her parents hahaha (I remember that camera-broken video lol) and she has grown- got engaged, got married had TWO babies, grown in her career, AND YET, I still find her relatable! I am not married, I do not have children. I have had significant growth in my career, but no family (yet) Sooooo - it might have a lot to do with reliability, but with Sarah, it's the AUTHENTICITY that keeps me here! ❤

    I’m not familiar with the interviewer, this video came up on my suggestions because I follow Sarah‘s day. But what a lovely interview and interaction between the two. I have followed Sarah’s day for many years and I think she is a very authentic person. I’ve read through the comments and some of them are quite negative about her. I’m not sure why people are shocked that somebody would talk about themselves in an interview meant to literally talk about themselves. I think she does the best she can in the setting of a career where she shares her life. The culture we live in can be quite difficult and she does take it with respect and grace.

    I was one of the 30k that followed her because I went through a breakup at the same time and she was SO RELATABLE. I tried the shred life for a while and lost my period too. But I have been watching her for years and don’t plan on stopping until she hangs her hat up. I genuinely respect her approach to life and willingness to learn and grow.
    I can’t wait to see her ‘house of groms’ stage of career growth!!

    One thing I wish she would incorporate in her content is the advice of a registered dietitian. I haven’t consumed content of hers since 2020 because I was part of that group that was quite vulnerable and went along with her extreme phase, and coincidentally developed orthorexia, responsibility not pinned on her though. Now, after studying dietetics and finding balance and real health, this talk kind of heals some wounds and resentment I’ve had toward sarah since that time. Thanks!

      @@bonnietang3870 That’s not for you to decide. It doesn’t matter where she worked or what she did, it would eventually become obvious and she would have to deal with it “publicly” no matter what. The fact that her entire life is on camera, to bring it up, address it lightly and say she does not feel that details are for everyone to know.. very respectful way of going about it. If she went in on it and displayed his struggles daily, or tried to make money off of it.. maybe that would be different? But then again she could bring a lot of education and normalize these types of “disorders” or whatever it may be. Stay in your lane, worry about your own life is all I can recommend because at the end of the day.. someone will always ridicule her decision (obviously).

    I first found Sarah whenever she announced to Kurt that she was pregnant with Fox. So I started to watch her whenever she posted every 3 days! Then I took a dive to her first videos and watched them all in order. I fell in love with her, her content, and I really enjoyed watching her grow from her "baby youtube" stage to now. All her fitness meet and greets, to moving into the small apartment, to the birth of Fox, of which I balled my eyes out. Then watching Kurt propose, the wedding, all of it! I can say one thing, I love Kurt more than the ex! and I remember when she was talking about all the horror that she was going through when she was pregnant with Malakai with all the trolls assuming, demanding, I was crying and frustrated with her! I love Sarah, her family, and I totally live my fantasy Australian life through her!

    I am only 25 mins into this interview but I am enjoying it a lot. I used to follow Sarah's channel back when I was 16/17 years old, struggling with an eating disorder (falling into a similar set of believing what I was doing was "healthy"/"good") It was during that time that Sarah's "shred life" videos were trending and looking back/during my recovery a few years back I recognised how these kinds of videos were enabling me in my disordered mindset. To have this interview now and hear her reflecting back on that phase of her UA-cam channel and talk honestly about it and to own the content she put out there and to reflect on it critically means a lot to me (more than I would've thought it would) and also is interesting to look back on now and recognise and understand Sarah's situation back then better than I ever could have at 17. I, too, love looking back now, remembering that first-meet up, that break up video, the first tiny apartment Kurt and Sarah shared. good memories :D Anyhow, I just thought I'd leave this here before I get back to watching the rest of the video. All the love and respect going out to Sarah and her family!

    I’ve been following Sarah from day one. Had hormonal acne, PCOS and CIN3 (plus endometriosis). I had the procedure Sarah talks about in regards to CIN3, and she’s right, it caused major problems in pregnancy. I nearly had baby at 23 weeks as my body couldn’t hold baby in due to the surgery so I had to remove pre cancerous cells. I had to have a surgery to put a metal band in to keep baby in and a surgery at 38 weeks to remove the metal band. It’s baby’s 1st birthday today and without that surgery baby wouldn’t be here. However a massive point here is in the UK I had to push for a consultants care when pregnant and if I didn’t, the problem wouldn’t have been spotted by the consultant and baby wouldn’t be here. So if you’ve had CIN3 and a procedure to resolve it, demand support if you become pregnant ❤

Next time, I’ll have this surgery (cervical stitch) from the beginning. It’s common to have the LLETZ procedure for CIN3 removal and not need to cervical stitch in pregnancy. As long as you’re being monitored it’s completely controllable 👌🏼😇

    I started watching from almost day 1. Stopped watching around the time Sarah was saying the "toxic culture" bits. Because of exactly what she was saying, she was not eating or switching diets and telling people it was what they "should" do with no evidence or reasoning and it was frustrating. Sooo nice to hear her saying she regrets it. Loved her personality but it just wasn't right. But I appreciate her for getting me thinking of my health, glad she is able to be honest about it.

I hope Sarah has been able to accept some of the feedback she’s gotten in the last year or two regarding a message that can at times feel directed towards women suffering from ED. I had followed her for years, but had to take a step back because some of the content felt like it was pushing the boundaries of toxic health inspo. But I’m all for people growing and learning, and I wish the best for her family! She really does seem like such a great mum.

      At the time of the cultural appropriation stuff there were a lot of black women commenting trying to educate her about cultural appropriation, the significance of braids, etc. A lot of the response from Sarah was the same stuff you read from her followers in the comments here: “I didn’t do anything wrong, what a stupid thing to get upset about, this is not a big deal, poor me for getting all this hate” etc etc. Even though many of the comments were very kind and respectful and just trying to help her see a different perspective, they got deleted and labeled as “haters”. The same thing happened recently with an ad for one of her workout books where followers very kindly explained how her ad affects people with eating disorders and to please change it or take it down. Response- delete comments, call them haters.
      I don’t hate Sarah but she does sometimes seem to forget that her place online is such that she is intentionally trying to influence peoples behaviour and make money off them. I don’t think this is bad in itself but it’s not the same as “just being myself and getting hate for it”. Even if she wants to keep a record of her past, she could have one of her staff add a disclaimer before her past videos saying it is not healthy behaviour, or she could take out the ads from those videos, etc.

      She apologized and reshoot the campaign. Sarah received death threats because braids situation. I mean … actual death threats. That is insane. She has two sons. No wonder she tried not to provoke the discussion further. Why are people trying force her to talk about it again? It’s clear to me that she was uninformed and did faux-pas. Her only intention was for her hair to look good. Why people can’t let it go?
      I think she has the right to delete comments that are painful to her. It’s her platform after all. If somebody doesn’t like her and doesn’t agree with that - doesn't have to be there.
      It’s a bit sad tho that she has to think about stuff that she said and did a few years ago. It’s almost like you can’t really go forward.
      I think she created a lot of value. Some of it is for free other things are not. I really appreciate the workouts that she is uploading. I love pilates and in ”real world” pilates is expensive. Thanks to her & few other woman on UA-cam I can do it as many times as I want. I feel grateful for it.
      As she mentioned in the video she is oversharer but I think vulnerability is about something more as Simon Sinek said:
      “I think that we live in the world that we have confused vulnerability with broadcasting feelings. Sitting in your bedroom with your phone on self-view and broadcasting your break up or your anger or whatever it is on Tik Tok or whatever your media of choice is … is not vulnerability. Even if you’re crying. Have that exact conversation with those exact same words with somebody you love and see how difficult that is. That is vulnerability.”

      It’s no coincidence that those videos contain adverts, she’s generating an income but hoping her self awareness over past patterns is enough to rationalise keeping the content available for public consumption. It doesn’t suffice, take down what did, and most likely still is doing the damage to many girls if you feel so far removed from what you once promoted.

    The braids seemed to offend everyone else besides us poc. It’s not a big deal, a hairstyle is an expression - the campaign was that vibe and that was it! Do you jump on Beyoncé or the Kardashians for their blonde hair?
    Sarah is insightful and eloquent and even if I can’t relate to those yucky Dino bars and I’m as flexible as a salada, she’s still inspiring in heaps of ways. I’m really loving her growth and this talk 🤘🏽

    This was hard to watch. The answer to the title should be a resounding yes, and Sarah is unfortunately a prime example of this. I take issue with family vloggers in general as their children become part of their brand, they're not old enough to give consent or decide whether they want to be public figures, and they're put in an exposed and potentially dangerous situation when their parents disclose too much information about them online, which can be abused and poses a security threat in the wrong hands. I can only commend her for not disclosing her children's health issues.
    I used to love watching Sarah's Day, was a follower for many years. She comes off as a wonderful mother, partner and friend. She has this fantastic energy about her. I unsubscribed however because of the many double standards and lies. It's hard to empathise with her when she sits here talking about her disordered eating and how difficult it was in light of the controversy following her exercise guide e-book, specifically marketed towards people who experience- or have experienced these issues and flat out refusing to respond to the criticism and concerns that followed. I totally understand deleting troll comments and abuse from one's channel, but that's not what she's done and doing. She mass removes comments on all her channels from anyone who doesn't sing praises, including ED sufferers who are subscribed to her and are VERY nicely stating that it's triggering and politely addressing concerns about aforementioned guide, the qualifications required to make such a guide, and the advertisement for it. When she finally responded she made herself out to be the victim and put it down to haters trying to take her down and hurt her brand. It's tone deaf to put it mildly. I recommend checking out Mia Findlay's videos on the topic.
    Sarah will put warnings on vlogs discussing abortion and difficulty conceiving, but when it comes down to selling her products she doesn't extend any of the same empathy to her fans and customers who suggest improvements or incorporating help from someone qualified, like a clinician or dietician. I don't hate her, at all, but I can't respect her approach either.

    I used to love Sarah, but had to stop watching because I simply don’t agree with how big of a focus her two boys are in her content - I mean at this point she’s a family channel. So little privacy all for the sake of “you guys are part of my life”. Of course it is completely up to her, but from an ethical standpoint I just can’t support her anymore but wish her well. Just wish her kids got to grow up in privacy with a normal childhood - many influencers manage to keep their kids out of their work life. They cannot consent to be filmed and show their private moments to millions of people because they can’t even comprehend what that actually MEANS.

I get so defensive of her when I see these trolls speak to things they know nothing about. Im so grateful for her. If you dont like it, feel free to click something else. Dont forget that shes a human being doing her best and growing everyday. I genuinely feel like she has inspired me to be a better person in multiple stages of my life and this video was no exception.

The doctors said going through pregnancy reset a lot of stuff in her body. So it does happen, and with much more serious issues than food intolerances. If you do some research for yourself, you'll see there's a lot of scientific research analysing the effects of pregnancy and the physiological changes it causes, including the remission of autoimmune diseases.

      @maddyG7414 Рік тому

      @@clo2583listen, I’m not saying she can’t possibly be a liar, but let me give you a perspective from someone who had an eating disorder. When you have one, your brain lies to YOU. It tells you that what you’re doing is great, that people who speak up just don’t get it, because you’re thin and ‘healthy’. Orthorexia is particularly nasty because there’s so much bs ‘health’ claims associated with it. You aren’t not eating, but you are still starving because you’re not consuming enough calories. I would be willing to bet that Sarah genuinely believed everything she was saying. She thought she was healthy and living an admirable lifestyle. So did I. I would basically eat just veggies and protein, workout twice a day sometimes and was obsessed with my looks. But everyone complimented me and if they expressed concern it was so few and far between that I just assumed they were jealous. It’s a very self absorbed way to live, but it’s not uncommon for women. My basic message is, try to have some compassion for people. Perhaps she should delete the videos, but I don’t think we can reasonably claim that she was just lying and trying to deceive her audience. I think she was trying to deceive herself, until one day her body crashed and she couldn’t pretend it was working for her anymore.
